True to its name, Casa al Bosco is in a wooded setting but is not secluded. Just one mile from the village of San Donato in Poggio with shops and services, and two miles to the main highway between Siena and Florence, it is in an enviable location for touring Tuscany.

The gated estate is in a peaceful residential district surrounded by mature trees. The very large private garden is a haven and offers plenty of space for outdoor relaxation and fun. Enjoy dining al fresco on the patio, and cool down in the refreshing swimming pool. Trees provide welcome shade.

Casa al Bosco is of modern construction and is spacious and well suited for a group of friends or a family. It is furnished with a mix of modern and rustic pieces. On the main floor is a large dining room with doors opening onto the terrace. A pretty provincial-style living room is a pleasant gathering spot. The eat-in kitchen is large enough for several people to cook together and features new appliances.

Three nicely-proportioned bedrooms are on the main floor, along with two full bathrooms, one with a shower and one with a bathtub. One of the bedrooms has a door to the terrace.

On a lower floor is a space known as a taverna, a roomy, open living/dining room with beamed ceilings and a cozy fireplace which provides another spot for dining and relaxing. An extra kitchen area and powder room are conveniently located here as well. There is also a billiard table.

Casa al Bosco is well equipped with satellite TV, a washing machine, barbecue grill, ping-pong table, and a garage for guests' use. Maid service is available on request.

The villa is located in the Chianti within easy reach of stellar vineyards, alluring hill towns, historic castles, and charming churches. The nearby highway makes it easy to reach the art cities of Siena and Florence. Florence is 16 miles away.
